In eyes with open-angle glaucoma, endothelial cell loss after phacoemulsification combined with CyPass implantation continued for at least 5 years, while endothelial cell loss stabilized in eyes that underwent phaco without CyPass implantation after 3 months, according to a study.
“The study demonstrated the importance of long-term follow-up of MIGS devices, specifically CyPass, given no difference in cell loss was noted between the cataract surgery-alone group and the CyPass/cataract surgery group 2 years postop, while at 5 years there was twice the cell loss, 20% vs. 10%, in the CyPass
